Staff Setup

[herbert]

Hi,

The “Staff Setup” dialog displayed via the menu “Staff – Setup…” does no longer permit the change of staff names.

This is most inconvenient when setting up the instrumentation for an orchestral score, or making changes to a score.

Best wishes,

Herbert

Howdy Herbert,

I'm not seeing that problem here. Is there a particular file that you're trying to work with? Are you seeing this problem with multiple files? Please post (or send to support@notation.com) a file or files that show the problem and I'll have a look.

Thanks!
Sherry

Hi Sherry,

Any file I have tried shows the problem, including “Create a New Song” from the opening screen of Composer.

Composer has two “Staff Setup” dialogs. The one accessible via the buttons works ok. The one accessible via the menu has the problem. This is a more efficient dialog.


Best wishes,

Herbert

Hi Herbert,

I've just tried using both dialogs, and they're both working for me in Composer 2.6.3 I also tried using the menu Staff/Setup to change the staff names for staves that weren't in the Part that was showing, and that worked as well for me here.

This is on just opening a file. Perhaps there needs to be some editing done to the file in order for the problem to show up?

ttfn,
Sherry

Can’t explain it, the problem is consistent.

Hi Herbert,

Just for kicks, can you please send me one of the files that you're working with?

ttfn,
